I'm still up for some reason. There's a small chance we've run out of clued words, right? If park was overlap and incantation was a single.

But now I'm going to bed. I'm comfortable with whatever you guys decide. Passing doesn't seem terrible.

Woot!

I'll be honest...I kind of hate block. If I gave that clue, and block was the assassin, I would feel quite safe.

I guess I'm on my own with the whole dwarf/pumpkin idea, but I really do like it a lot. But if you guys don't agree, then do whatever.

Feel free to pass, but I also hate doing that when you're on a tear even when it's probably the right thing to do, just for the glory.

Passing feels right here, though I understand going for glory lol. It would have to be Pumpkin AND Dwarf, right?

Spell + Pumpkin = Cinderella
Spell + Dwarf = ... Gandalf? (maybe there's something better, idk)

I'm also anti-Block. I'm on board with passing or Dwarf (think it's slightly more likely than Pumpkin).

Were up 13:9. I assume it'll take at least 2 more turns for red to win, and maybe 3. I think we just pass here and reeval adter the next clue.
We only need 4 more and I think were going to be better positioned to make aggressive guesses.

Pass

i almost always prefer guessing. and glory

but pass sounds good to me

And the fact that we might have technically guessed all the words we've been clued for. =)

Here is what we have to date

Brush (freebie off paleontology)
Buffalo (America)
Gold (America)
Hollywood (America)
Maple (America, sticky amd maybe maple baseball bats)
Pitch (America, sticky and maybe baseball)
Star (America flag, and maybe baseball)
Wall (America, and maybe baseball)

What is America left that is not food...

In no order
Antarctica, center, palm (plus baseball linked ones: fan, fence)

From the rest we should dodge kiwi, octopus, plate, pumpkin, Kangaroo (do people eat them).

Now did EB just mean food, or things that need food. Soldier, smuggler, genius.

I was hoping for a clue towards something, but I guess we just need to keeping going America and then do.....I don't know..?

In what order do we like Antarctica, center, palm, fan, fence. And are there other america possibilities.

EDIT. At this point in the game Food 0 has to mean much more than stay away from plate and pumpkin for America. Do we feel EB thinks this our last clue this game??? I am inclined to think they have all theirs and we will get one more go. Thus we may need to be careful and not pick too many and leave them with a 3 pick...

all 25 unpicked....

Possible America non-food words (not in order of priority)

Antarctica (maybe America)
Center (maybe America - i like this one)
Fan (may be America)
Fence (may be America - like it now.. baseball link and trump wall link)
Palm (anything to do with food??.. if not might be America)

For sure do not pick words

Chick (chicken is food)
Kiwi (food)
Plate (eat food off it)
Pumpkin (food)
Octopus (is food)

Might be related to broader link to food

Arm (used to eat food…plus pistol was not ours)
Dwarf (eats food)
Genius (eats food)
Smuggler (eats food)
Soldier (eats food)
Kangaroo (eats food, might be food)
Net (can catch fish)
Hospital (serves food that is awful)
Jet (serves food that is awful)

Left- overs

Laser (not food)
Marble (not food)
Spring (not food)
Block (maybe a spell word)
Yard (not food)
File (not food)

I guess I like fence and center.....

I have eaten kangaroo, but not sure if eb would consider it food.

That's good enough for me. And I'm definitely not a 0 food guy.

EB has figured he needed to give anti-clues here in order for us to have a chance, so I don't want to rollover if there is still hope and there is something we are just not seeing.. I mean he could have moved in a clue 6 or clue 7, but he didn't. Even if we pick one or two america clues at least we should get an unlimited clue our last go.....

Let's see what Carl and e_holle say and then just do something...anything....

Antarctica (maybe America) a medium shot
Center (maybe America - i like this one) a long shot
Fan (may be America) I don't think so
Fence (may be America - like it now.. baseball link and trump wall link) I like it
Palm (anything to do with food??.. if not might be America) is a food, and they are all over the world

For sure do not pick words I agree

Chick (chicken is food)
Kiwi (food)
Plate (eat food off it)
Pumpkin (food)
Octopus (is food)

Might be related to broader link to food

Arm (used to eat food…plus pistol was not ours) don't like it
Dwarf (eats food) don't see it being right
Genius (eats food) ditto
Smuggler (eats food) prohibition tie-in?
Soldier (eats food) USA has a lot of these
Kangaroo (eats food, might be food) food, and no America tie-in
Net (can catch fish) true, but balanced by being sticky-like
Hospital (serves food that is awful) no tie-ins that I can see
Jet (serves food that is awful) ditto

Left- overs yeah

Laser (not food)
Marble (not food)
Spring (not food)
Block (maybe a spell word)
Yard (not food)
File (not food)

I guess I like fence and center.....
Added my thoughts.

we have 7 america picks (i think) and need 3 more.

eholle, it looks like you only like fence, so let's go that first.

fence
